Why “Why” Is Important
I was inspired today. It happened at a Super Bowl party by a friend as driven in her field as I am in mine.
We engaged on several subjects about what it takes to be successful. I am scientist, engineer, computer programmer and financial analyst. I have a bend for the quantitative that is great for puzzles and understanding how things work.
But I have struggled with the “why” things work. Particularly the “why” people do the things they do.
She had a different point of view. I didn’t quite get it until she sent me this 2009 TED video by Simon Sinek. (A shorten version can be here.)
I am inspired.
Thank you.
Adding Value
Do you add value to the customers you serve?
Do you add value to the household you run?
Do you add value to the lives of your family?
How do you feel after reading these questions?
Life is giving and taking. You can not live without doing each, but adding value credits a positive balance in the ledger of life.
